PayPal Friends and Family (F&F), Venmo, Gpay, cashapp, Applepay, Facebook PayPal, etc are not allowed

PayPal Goods and Services (G&S, Invoice) is the only payment accepted for purchases requiring shipping

42. That's how many people got scammed in the past 30 days. 42 people who won't be getting their money back.

From this point on, anyone using PayPal F&f, Venmo, Gpay, anything other than Paypal Goods and Services on trades conducted here, regardless if the trades are a success or not, will be permanently banned with no chance of unbanning.

New users: Do not let other sellers pressure you into f&f because of your account age.

The excuse "I didn't realize the rules have been updated//It used to be allowed" is no longer acceptable. It's been over a year. Get with the times.

I must reiterate: we will not consider any other forms for shipped purchases until we find and agree on one that offers similar or better protection for both parties. Do not ask in modmail.

The rules will be updated to add emphasise in regards to the permaban situation

Note:

The PayPal 'Return Shipping On Us' program is a very useful feature offered for free by PayPal, which allows you to get refunded for up to $30 on 12 eligible purchases a year. The program must be opted into, meaning that even if someone were to learn about it they couldn't use it retroactively. Many people aren't aware that such a program exists, and it would be very useful both for hardwareswap refunds and other applications such as RMAs. The link is https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/returns.

My previous giveaway post on /r/buildapc got taken down so lets try this again here :)

I have a habit of buying GPUs whenever I have a chance to go to Microcenter and wanted to give back to the reddit community after cashing out on some GME 🚀 so here I am holding a giveaway. Don't worry I'm still holding the rest of my options to the 🌑.

Timestamps of the card: here (says 1/29 from when I initially tried to post)

To enter leave a comment below. Posting a story about how you would use the card will not improve your chances of winning but I will appreciate reading it anyway :)

Unfortunately at this time entries are limited to people residing in the U.S.

I'll be picking a winner randomly Tuesday night at midnight EST using reddit raffler !

Good luck everyone!

Requirements to enter:

• Only enter this giveaway if you will have a use for this item, otherwise, a new post will have to be made if you change your mind.

• You can only enter this giveaway if your account meets the minimun requiremets to make a post on the subreddit. (100 COMMENT Karma or an account age of at least 50 days).

• You must be an active participant in this or other subreddits. Accounts that only have comments in giveaways will have their entries removed. If chosen, you profile will be reviewed to make sure you meet this requirement.

• You must not use a blind reshipper to get around country limitations. You may put in your entry that you will use a reshipper, but if the giveaway operator chooses your entry, they may choose to draw again if they wish.

The new line of RTX 30 series GPUs has been revealed. It's also not yet available.

Ebay prices as well as prices everywhere will likely see a drop.

Price policing rules still apply.

That Asus ROG Strix RTX card you wanted dropped in $ on ebay?

Go ahead and link the same exact model and ask for a lower price based on the new lower price you found online.

However, linking to another product that doesn't yet exist as justification to lowball is strictly not allowed.

We're getting flooded in modmail by reports of trolls in RTX sales threads here on hardwareswap. This leaves us with less time to combat scammers.

You are free to make any offer you like BY PM. Publicly posted lowballs will be removed for price policing and a ban handed out.

We went through something similar with the 9xx series with 10xx launch.

Feel free to advise on lower pricing if it can be found online for exact same GPU model. Otherwise please refrain from commenting.

"Joke" buying posts will not be tolerated.

SELLERS: If you're being price policed, harassed or threadcrapped, we are actively watching reports. Use the report button.

Hello,

I got this PS5 over a month ago thinking I might be able to use it as leverage for a GPU trade. Man was I wrong. All it has done is sit in my room and laugh at me as I watch the prices of GPUs skyrocket. After falling for a $450 3070 listing on April Fools I decided that it's about time I bring my GPU search to an end.

I just want my money back, so I'm selling this bad boy for $565 PayPal (paid $530 for it, and guessing that shipping will cost $20+).

Also, I'm a cracked gamer and wouldn't be pooping on kids left and right if it weren't for having an Xbox at a young age, so I'm looking to continue the cycle and get this in the hands of a kid.

That being said, if you're an angry parent who's been searching far and wide for a console for your kid, send me some proof (up to you to determine how, but make sure to include your reddit username) and its yours. No bidding wars in this part of town, just gonna choose the first person to prove their kid needs it and I'll give it to them

Timestamp

Edit: SOLD

Makes me happy knowing I sold it to a guy with 6 kids but also really sad because a bunch of people need PS5s and I only have one to give. Good luck to everyone else who is looking!

Edit 2:

What a cruel world we live in-

After selling the PS5 I got an offer for a 3070 local trade about an hour and a half away. Gotta be one of the biggest moral dilemmas in history; give the PS5 to the family in need or get myself the mythic GPU that only exists in folk tales. Nobody should have to make such a decision.

Sike, easy decision. I'm not a POS scammer, that family is getting a damn console

Edit 3:

Wow. What a ride. The dad just messaged me saying that he saw my 2nd edit and wants me to try and make the trade for the 3070. He promises that he won't be heartbroken. However I already decided that he was going to get the PS5 and just now I've been messaging with another user who says he's going to help me get a 3000 series GPU. Everyone gets to be the winner! What a perfect conclusion to this story. Someone contact Dhar Mann and get him to use this as a script for his video.

Final edit:

Huge thanks to u/nerdcat_ as he helped me get this beautiful RTX 3070 FE. I really didn't expect any of this to happen and am super grateful for this outcome. Hopefully others will see this and be inspired to do something good.

Thanks everyone for being so damn nice!

Hey swappers, hope everyone is staying safe! I meant to do this as a "100 trade giveaway" but it was delayed by USPS, so I'm a little late.

I have an Aresgame RGB Mouse Mat up for giveaway. I received this as a "free gift" for purchasing one of their power supplies, so I wanted to give back to this community since you've all been so helpful to me. I know, it isn't some high end component or anything and something I received for "free", but I will take care of any shipping charges!

Timestamp

I took it out of the box to make sure it worked, but other than that it is BNIB. It has the option of static colors as well as slow and fast cycling rainbow RGB. It is powered by a single USB cable so you just need an open USB port for it to work.

Hello HWS!

Top of post edit: OMG THE COMMENTS, SO MANY GREAT ONES AND SO MANY OF THEM!! I can't believe the turnout for this one and am grateful that I could at least give you all a chance at the win! For those who didn't have the karma, go out and get some this week and tune in for next week's giveaway! Also, the hint for next week's is: G3

And we have a winnerrrrr, congrats to u/bigboybobby6969 and I shall contact you shortly for shipping info!! See you all hopefully again next week!

Welcome to Giveaway Friday #3! These giveaways shall continue until the COVID-19 pandemic has averted (as my wallet permits). Today's item is a Intel Core i7-9700K as described above and I'd like to hand it off to someone that is in need of it. This has been used for less than a year and never was OC'd.

I will say this is probably going to be the biggest ticket item I do for a giveaway unfortunately as this is an expensive CPU (although the deal I got on a i9-9900KF replacement was pretty generous) so good luck to you all! And for those of you who wonder how I can afford this, all I can say is that I never feel like I deserve the money I have and others out there could make use of it if I do something nice..so yeah that's my life story 🙂

Seasons greetings fellow swappers! Being that this was a rough year for everyone, I felt like giving back to the community this year. I will be giving away to 1 lucky redditor a lightly used HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop.

Specs for PC: CPU: i5-9400F GPU: 1660TI 6GB RAM: Upgraded to 16GB (originally had 8GB) Storage: 256GB NVMe M.2 SSD

You will only receive the desktop itself with it’s power cord. (No keyboard, No mouse, No monitor)

Unit is used, but still completely works fine. Unit will be reset prior to shipping.

Timestamps: https://imgur.com/a/FaT5Z1v

Giveaway is open to all US and Canada Redditors! I will be covering shipping cost per the rules of giveaways!

Giveaway runs through Monday December 14th, 2020. (~96 Hours)

Winner will be chosen Tuesday, December 15th. I will hopefully have the computer shipped on Wednesday, December 16th to hopefully arrive before Christmas (no promises as UPS is kind of hectic this time of year).

1. Check the scammer list. 95% of scams are from accounts that are already banned and on the list. If the person has not commented on your post, it means they are banned.

2. If it's too good to be true, it is. No one is doing you a favor by selling something for half price.

3. PayPal Goods and Services is the only payment method that offers you protection. If the seller does not accept it, it is a scam. Bitcoin/Crypto, Zelle, Cash App, PayPal Friends and Family, and Venmo are all scams and you will lose your money.

If someone is not already on the scammer list and appears to be a scammer, send a message to modmail.

Read the wiki. It contains all you need to know to ensure your transactions go smoothly.

Hello HWS!

Edit 1: So, as an update, I just wanted to let you all know that I'm sorry in advance if someone gets this that doesn't need it and immediately resells it for over price...I didn't take that into consideration really and now I feel bad because that's probably gonna happen. I thought I made people happy but apparently my intentions are seen differently by others..and I'm sorry.

Edit 2: redditraffler is doing its work and the mods will be notified shortly.

Edit 3: Congratulations to u/failatlife1 on the new 1650 Super!

Unfortunately for any international interest, I will not be accepting worldwide entries for this giveaway, only the 48 CON-US states.

Welcome to Giveaway Weekend #17! It's been a long while since I've done one of these and it's time to do it once again. Today's item was chosen out from Microcenter (not sponsored) and I thought it would be a good choice given the current market. Hopefully one of you can enjoy an ASUS GTX 1650 Super and make good use of it. I know it's nowhere near 30 series performance, but it can still do good work for 1080p gaming. I did purchase a 2 year warrantee with it, but I'm not sure if it's transferable tbh.

Hello there! Long story short, I had a friend win this Xbox in the taco bell thing, and he pre-ordered one as well. I decided to pick it up from him. I have no qualms about keeping it, but I was curious if anyone has a Ps5 they would be willing to trade. It's the next gen console I'm after more so I'm simply curious. Any questions feel free to ask. It's been unboxed and turned on to verify it works at his place but that's all.

https://imgur.com/a/aswLfxA

Edit: just wanted to let y'all know, I needed to picking up a PS5 from best buy. Thanks for all the support!

I had to RMA my RAM due to errors found in MemTest. While waiting I bought better RAM and no longer need . Just received the new set from Corsair today and is still sealed in box.

Big shout to u/wonkafront for making this possible. I never win anything (can’t say that anymore.) I found out I won a Nintendo Switch Lite - do you know how hard it is to find this and this redditor is just giving it away. Nani?!? - on 4/26/2020, Santa sent it out on 4/27/2020, and I got it on 4/30/2020. 23 days later, and I’m making this post. I’m horrible, I know. I’m deeply sorry. A lot has happened, and I didn’t get a chance to properly thank u/wonkafront. You made my quarantine less miserable and put a smile on my face. Even when things are going bad, it only take one good thing to start a chain of positive events. Keep on being awesome. Thank you everyone in this community for paying it forward. Since I can’t go out, I go here often to window shop.

Thank you u/wonkafront, my Santa

It’s so pretty, but I don’t need it. Letting it go for retail + tax, so $650. I think the fans spun for like 12 seconds, so I guess it’s used. Local cash, I can’t ship it so plz don’t ask. Will provide $50 discount if you pull up playing Codeine Crazy by Future rlly loudly. Thx. Lmk.

update: it is sold and discount requirement has been met. video of it in the comments!

Sadly, I have to sell my baby to make ends meet. Built in Oct. of 2019, it's a PCIe 4.0 machine.

Tower components:

• Ryzen 5 3600 CPU

• ASUS X570-E Gaming MOBO

• XFX RX 5700XT 8GB GPU

• 2 x 16GB 3600OC G.Skill Trident Z Neo RAM

• 2 x Sabrent Rocket Gen4 1TB SSD (RAID-0)

• SeaGate Barracuda 2TB 7200 RPM HDD

• Corsair Crystal Series 680X Case

• Corsair H115i Platinum RGB 280mm Liquid Cooler

• Corsair RM 850x Modular PSU (80+ Gold)

• 5 x Corsair LL140 RGB Fans

• Win10 Pro (If transferrable)

Peripherals:

• ASUS MG278Q 27" 144hz 1440p Monitor

• Razer Huntsman Elite Keyboard

• Razer Mamba Tournament Wired Mouse

• Razer Goliathus Mousepad

Never been overclocked, never needed to. All other peripherals (keyboard, mouse, etc) in pictures will be included.

I've got no choice but to sell it, I badly need money to keep up with bills. I work ride-share full time, business has plummeted drastically. Whoever buys this PC will be saving me from becoming homeless. If you can't buy it, please up-vote so it gets plenty of exposure.

I'll transfer my Win 10 Pro license if possible. Rig would be delivered on a fresh install. Happy to provide more pictures if needed. Benches / Temps, whatever.

• Full list of parts included in sale: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QYwf3t

If you're within WA, I can drive to meet you to avoid shipping costs. Maybe OR.

Asking price is 2300.00 USD, or 2500.00 USD if shipped within USA.

I'll respond promptly to questions or DMs. Ask away. Please buy my baby.

EDIT: I've updated the basic list of components to include everything, since people seem to be ignoring the full list of parts I included in the link. The prices on PCPartPicker are not accurate, and were not the prices I used to arrive at my asking price. The actual market value of all included parts, if purchased new, are around 3,100.00 USD before tax. I removed some of the prices for stuff like fans, and Win10 Pro, which ended up roughly at 2,900.00. I then removed another 600.00 to compensate for the fact that while the parts are extremely well taken care of, they are not brand new. Anything that can be, will be delivered in the original boxes, and I will send the empty original component boxes, if wanted.

This giveaway is for Continental US only. Users who participate in the giveaway must have an account that is at least 50 days old or have at least 100 comment karma. Must comment to enter.

Message from MODS:

"Your account must be permitted to post to the subreddit. Meaning your account must be over 50 days old and have positive karma. You must participate in the community to some degree, this means you can not only be on the subreddit to enter giveaways.

You must not use a blind reshipper to get around country limitations. You may put in your entry that you will use a reshipper, but if the giveaway operator chooses your entry, they may choose to draw again if they wish.

We are not placing a giveaway limit for winners, but if we see shenanigans we will revoke a win.

Entering fraudulently will result in a ban. If we find you have alts to enter more than once, it results in a ban."

It's a bit weird? It boots normally but you have to go into the bios first then exit the bios then it'll go to Windows. Just press del, f1 when the megatrends logo pops up, then esc and it'll go to windows.

I'll be making my decision of who the PC goes to based on who I think can use it the most, so send the reason why you need a computer along with your PM, as well as your aspirations after college and why you chose the college you chose!

Timestamp of college ID or acceptance letter required.
